Highs & Lows

[user4144]

In poker, one can experience extreme highs and lows in a matter of seconds, and none more so was this the case than in the last hand for Ian Frazer.

Having raised it up preflop to 8,000 from UTG+1, Frazer then made a brave call with {10-Spades}

after James Tomlin had pushed all in from the big blind for 55,000 with {A-Spades}

.

You could almost sense the little voice in Frazer's head chanting "small cards, small cards, small cards," and although the {9-Diamonds}

board was awash with rags, Frazer had completely missed the backdoor flush, and duly punched the air in celebration of what would have been a crucial victory.

But sadly for the Razer, it wasn't to be, as the dealer swiftly requested payment, and the realisation finally set in. Meanwhile, it's happy days for Tomlin, who now has over the 100,000 mark for what I would imagine is the first time today.
